Color in the Visible and Invisible World 275

Two facts must ever be kept in mind: The 



duality in all existence, manifested and unman- 

 ifested, it is the coexistence of spirit-matter; and 

 that all development proceeds primarily by the 

 triadic process. According to the stage of the pro- 

 cess, from the creation of a universe to the birth 

 of a human being and the thoughts of his mind 

 (upon which his evolution depends), the color 

 corresponds with and indicates the period, in vary- 

 ing grades marking the " critical " state, or 

 merging together of positive and negative phases 

 which produce secondary colors, from red 

 through yellow to blue. But, never forget, above 

 these and penetrating and modifying all is a spirit- 

 ual force, without which they could not exist, which 

 emanates as violet and indigo, for these are its gar- 

 ments. This spirit-force, the lowest form of spirit, 

 manifests on the material plane as electricity and 

 magnetism, and is to be identified as a ray from 

 " The Light of the Logos." Akasha, limiting 

 its form, " introducing the principle of division 

 into the one," says Mrs. Besant, " veils the Light, 

 and by limiting the ray, makes separation, where, 

 essentially, separation there is none." 



It is these varying phases and Tattvic combina- 

 tions in every Hierarchy, planet, element, and cor- 

 responding human principle, that account for the 

 discrepancies in the many schemes of correspon- 

 dences between planets, Tattvas, elements, and
